The drive back to Miami was slow. There was some construction, but mostly it was the driving. They are slow. If you ever drive this route, make sure that you give yourself extra time. Lots of slow people, gawkers, trucks, and boat towers. Makes for a very slow trip.
We stayed at the Hampton again in Miami. It is very close to the airport, and it is secured like Fort Knox. I guess it is in a bad neighborhood. I was looking forward to a dip in the pool when we got there, but it was closed for a private party. What crap! Also the breakfast was gross. I would not recommend it. Even if it is “free”. Their snack store is a joke too. Bring your own!
